> 3 dayI’ve had dry skin my entire life, even through puberty. This oil is the best product ever. It may sound strange but it is not greasy at all. It soaks right in and my skin feels amazing. My hubby had Oiler skin and absolutely hates lotions and anything that leave his skin feeling oily. He loves the avocado oil. If you want something to moisturize but not leave a film then this may be the product for you

Greater than one weekI am a 20-something with fairly dry skin and occasional acne. When I try new products, I like to use them for a week then go back to the old products for a week for good comparison. After about a month of use, I must say, I love this oil. I use it as a replacement for body lotion and mix it with kukui oil as a replacement for face creams, and my skin has never felt better. When I first tried to start using. natural oils as a replacement for chemical creams, I tried to use coconut oil. Coconut oil seemed to just linger on my skin for hours at a time while never absorbing, leaving my skin both dry and greasy at the same time. This oil is very different though! It absorbed quickly and I could get dressed without worrying about getting my clothes oil stained. If I wanted to, I *could* put on makeup immediately (although it took a good dose of powder to keep eye makeup in place), but I found after 30 minutes makeup stayed just as in tact as if I had used conventional lotion. The bottle promises hydration and elasticity, and it delivers. Every morning I would wake up in shock of how great my skin was. It just looked and felt so nourished. It was hydrated, but not oily, to the extent that the fine lines around my eyes and mouth seemed to be disappearing. If I got some sun and my skin was extra dry, it used to take rounds of applying body lotion at least twice a day. But with this, I feel hydrated for 24 hours. Even if my skin is not dry at all, I still like to use a small amount, and it never feels greasy. This is a fantastic oil, whether as a carrier oil to mix with other oils or as is, especially since it naturally has SPF of around 15+ (according to multiple websites, just google it). The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the packaging. Something was a little loose in the shipping, and oil spilled in the box. It was a mess. I mentioned that I go back to my old products for a week for good comparison. The comparison to conventional products was so stark that I would have given up on the week. But, I was actually out of town, and I intentionally did not bring the product since I was concerned about leakage. However, this is a TOP QUALITY oil, and the solution is to simply get a nicer glass container, and if the product shipped in a ziplock bag I would be over the moon. Conclusion: Fantastic product, fantastic value. I highly recommend it, and I will be buying it again and again. If this review was helpful please click yes below.

Greater than one weekI had been using coconut oil for my legs and loved how it made them feel. I bought the avocado oil to use as a carrier oil for my essential oils and I put it on my legs because I had excess on my hands. Later I had an itch and lifted my pant leg to scratch it and was blown away at how soft it felt. It absorbed so well and didnt leave my legs feeling oily as the coconut oil would. My new favorite oil for my body and essential oils.

> 3 dayThis does smell a bit like old oil once its on your skin, but I fixed that with a few drops of essential oil. Its so worth it. Very thick, but in a good way - its the only thing Ive ever used that has kept my skin moisturized through the winter. I am of ethnic descent and live in the far North - its a recipe for horrific dry skin that Ive battled my entire life, until this winter when I started using Avocado Oil. Im also pregnant and have had no itchy skin or stretch marks (crowd gasps in awe). Love, love, love this product!!

Greater than one weekAvocado oil is a necessity for anyone who works with oils that go on the skin. This is actually food grade oil, so you can use it for cooking. What makes it good for the skin, though is the fact that it is light and has very little smell, and what smell there is is pleasant. I use this as an massage oil because of its pureness and lightness. I also use it as a base for oil mixes. For example, tea tree oil has excellent anti-microbial qualities, but at full strength it can irritate the skin. Mix it one part tea tree to two parts avocado oil, though, and you have a great essential mix.

> 3 dayFor cosmetic use only. It has been bleached and the natural scent removed. It is a thicker oil perfect for hair and body. I use it in my whipped body butters and sometimes alone. Texture is nice on the skin and it isnt gritty. I highly recommend avocado oil for cosmetic purposes. I also recommend it for foods but this isnt a food grade oil as its been specifically processed for cosmetic use.

> 3 dayMy daughter and I have been using this in place of cream or lotion after shower/face wash. It absorbs into the skin fairly quickly. I do wish it had a pump style dispenser since it can be really easy to pour out too much and can get a little messy. I love that there is no scent at all since I prefer scent less moisturizers that don’t clash with my perfume or body spray. I have notice a huge difference after using this for just a couple of weeks. My skin feels softer and brighter. I highly recommend it!!
